What are you rreasons for being a vegetarian and later becoming a fruitarian? GREGORY: Moral and political reasons were that I could not profess to be non-violent in the civil rights movement after eating animals in order to survive. That's when I became a vegetarian. For health reasons I became a fruitarian because when doing research I realized that everything your body needed you could find in frluit. 1 So that's why I changed to that. Gamecock: You once ran from Washington to Chicago. Did you have any problems with that particular run? ..Gregory: No, just physical fitness. I ran from Los overeating; and a lot of people have to become more aware insofar as cutting back. We have to start coming up with educational plans in grade school to talk about the horrors of overeating and what it costs the body and the nation. The problem of starvation we can deal with. That's iust a matter of taking out the manipulator (government). The less food, the more money we make. The question we have to ask is how 2,000 farmers each month in America leave the farm and a billion people are on the brink of starvation.
